LncRNA PCNAP1 Promotes Hepatoma Cell Proliferation through Targeting miR-340-5p and is Associated with Patient Survival

Figure 6

The PCNAP1/miR-154/PCNA signaling associates with HCC patient survival. (a and b) Scatters show relative expression of miR-340-5p and ATF7 mRNA in 92 pairs of HCC and matched normal tissues, detected by qRT-PCR and normalized to GAPDH. (c and d) Scatters and liners show the correlation between the expression of ATF7 mRNA and miR-340-5p and between the expression of PCNAP1 and ATF7 mRNA in 92 HCC tissues. (e and f) 41 HCC patients with low levels of miR-340-5p or high levels of ATF7 mRNA had poorer survival rates. (g) 33 HCC patients with high levels of miR-340-5p and low levels of ATF7 mRNA, and 31 HCC patients with low levels of miR-340-5p and high levels of ATF7 mRNA. (h) 15 HCC patients with high levels of miR-340-5p, low levels of ATF7 mRNA, and low levels of PCNAP1, and 18 HCC patients with low levels of miR-340-5p, high levels of ATF7 mRNA, and high levels of PCNAP1.“”, .
